Hi,

`  
TASK [os\_router : create a virtual router]

Hi

I did something like below and it worked as I wanted:

`

- name: check if router exists  
shell: neutron --os-username=“{{ os\_user }}” --os-password=“{{ os\_user\_password }}” --os-tenant-name=“{{ os\_project }}” --os-auth-url=“{{ os\_auth\_url }}” router-list | awk ‘/{{ os\_router\_name }}/’ | wc -l  
register: router

- name: create a router if it does not exist  
when: router.stdout == “0”  
shell: |  
neutron --os-username=“{{ os\_user }}” --os-password=“{{ os\_user\_password }}” --os-tenant-name=“{{ os\_project }}” --os-auth-url=“{{ os\_auth\_url }}” router-create “{{ os\_router\_name }}”  
neutron --os-username=“{{ os\_user }}” --os-password=“{{ os\_user\_password }}” --os-tenant-name=“{{ os\_project }}” --os-auth-url=“{{ os\_auth\_url }}” router-interface-add “{{ os\_router\_name }}” “{{ os\_subnet\_name }}”  
neutron --os-username=“{{ os\_user }}” --os-password=“{{ os\_user\_password }}” --os-tenant-name=“{{ os\_project }}” --os-auth-url=“{{ os\_auth\_url }}” router-gateway-set “{{ os\_router\_name }}” “{{ os\_network\_public }}”  
exit 0

`

Instead, I want to use the standard os\_router module to do just like the roles posted before

I do not know if I’m doing something wrong or if there is a bug on the os\_router module

Thank you
